Hi gabedrummi :
i do understand you have a Fanuc O series control.
I start communication set up for same control , OT in a lathe that i work on.
First thing you need is to have your cable made you will need also the CNC communication Software.

Do you have RS-232 communications with other machines?

[gabedrummin]

I HAVE CABLE AND SOFTWARE....NEED TI KNOW WHAT MACHINE PARAMETERS TO CHANGE //THANKS

I have a few things on the O series control. 1 is O series 1 is OM series. I am not sure what you have for a control. This should get you going in the right direction.

If you can let me know exactly what model OM,OMC,OMD,OT,OTC I have some that are more specific to the model. They should all be about the same.

Normally it is right above the CRT on the Left side.
That number looks more like a 10 system.
OK, I just found it, it is a 0.

I just assumed you knew what control it was based on the title of the thread "Fanuc O Control".

As AL said it should be at the top left part of the control screen. It should also be inside the machine cabniet on a sticker with the serial number. I attached a PDF that should show the commone places it is mounted.

I am not that firmilar with the O series control. You say you can't view parameter 552? Is there a "Service" and "Settings" softkey? Some parameters are listed in one and not the other. Could be looking in the wrong screen.

I HAVE A SETTINGS SOFTKEY AND THERE IS A OPTION FOR INPUT DIVICE O-3....3= CASSETTE..i HAVE IT SET TO 2.....ON MY PARAMETERS I HAVE 340.....310...311... AND 312.......ON THE BACK OF THE MACHINE THERE IS A FANUC TAG THAT HAS THE SERIAL NUMBER.....AND FOR CONTROL IT SAYS......O...NOT ZERO...THE LETTER O........

[Al_The_Man]

I never heard of an O, I looked up that part number it shows a 0 (zero).
Do you have a setting screen? that show PWE, TV On, ISO EIA , Port etc?

[gabedrummin]

Yes I have three settings pages I have tv check input device output device ..iso...eia....on one page ...on page two is the parameter write enable..one too write o for locked ..and a third page for offsets...

[gabedrummin]

One of the very helpful members asked for the serial number........The tag reads type A04B-0220-B058.......CONTROL....O.....date of mfg 11-86....I hope this helps to figure out who this animal is thanks to all the members.....
